Just six races remain until the start of the 2025 NASCAR playoffs, the first of which arrives Sunday in Dover.
The 2025 AutoTrader EchoPark Automotive 400 will be at Dover Motor Speedway, also serving as the semifinals of the NASCAR In-Season Challenge.
Drivers are scheduled for 400 laps around the "Monster Mile" in Delaware's July heat. As can happen with summer, though, it was rain that took the forefront of the scheduled racing action on Saturday. In order to get the Xfinity Series race in on time, the Cup Series practice and qualifying were canceled due to rain. The starting lineup was then determined via qualifying metric. This is determined by previous race finish (70%) and current owners points position (30%), per the NASCAR official release.
